Naked Zionism - ISRAEL-ARAB RELATIONS

Naked Zionism

A Mr. Yitzhak Epstein, visiting Palestine in 1907, admonished his
fellow Zionists that “our country” (meaning Arab Palestine) was not
empty and that they should disabuse themselves of the notion that
Palestine was a deserted place. He told them quite candidly that
Palestine had been inhabited “for centuries by another race” which had
“absolutely no thought of departing the land” He further informed them
that there was not “a cultivable parcel of acreage” left in Palestine”;
all arable land being already worked by the Arabs.
Remember these words were written in 1907 by a Jew who had done an
on-site inspection. How can these words be reconciled with the Zionist
narrative that Palestine was an empty land before the coming of the
Zionists? They can’t, obviously. There are literally dozens of similar
statements by early Zionist scouts of Arab Palestine, 1880-1914. The
Zionist Asher Ginsberg/Achad Haam, sadly commented that the incoming
Zionists never took the slightest account of the Arabs of Palestine,
except as an obstacle to be overcome. Herzl himself proposed that the
penniless Arab population be expelled across the border at the first
opportunity.
None of these comments can be reconciled with the Zionist fiction of
“a land without a people for a people without a land”. The Zionists
moving to Palestine after the Balfour Declaration of 1917 were at great
pains to pretend that they were not going to dispossess the Arabs. They
spoke in mellow, lying words about how they only wanted a “national
home”, not a national state, while privately admitting that
“national home” was merely a circumlocution for the real thing. Sir
Herbert Samuel, the English Jew who was the first British High
Commissioner of Palestine, proclaimed that the Jews, having been victims
of persecution for centuries, were not about to dispossess nor
expropriate the Arabs. These Jews lied, obviously. But some Jews were
more honest. Vladimir Jabotinsky wrote two famous essays in a Russian
language Paris newspaper in the early 1920’s. These essays, entitled
“The Iron Wall” and “The Iron Law” proclaimed that Zionism was “a
colonizing adventure and that it stood or fell on the question of armed
force”. It was important to “read Hebrew but it is more important to
shoot”. He went on to say that the Arabs of Palestine were not savages
but were deeply attached to their land. They would never voluntarily
relinquish their land. They would only do so when all hope was lost to
them. Thus, they must be confronted with an “iron wall of bayonets”.
Agreement with the Arabs in the future was possible only if there was no agreement with them now.
Here we have the entire ugly truth about Zionism in Palestine. Hiding
behind the myth of “a land without a people for a people without a
land” Zionism was never anything but a naked power grab aimed at taking Palestine from the Arabs. Rather
than admit this undeniable truth, the Zionists manipulate statistics,
turn the truth upside down and reinvent history to pretend that pure
thievery constitutes a bogus national right “to exist”.
